I bow in humbleness to Sleuth Andrew Corelli who is the first to capture his Nemeses and did it in 33 clues. All the props bro!

No, I haven't thwarted a nemesis, nor do I know anyone who has. My question is (and this is probably going to be considered a spoiler but I'm asking it anyway) what is the average number of clues you collect before you finally get an anchor clue? I'm sure as with everything else in Sleuth it's totally random, but I'm curious as to how many clues in other nemesis trackers were before they got their anchor clue.

Hiya Sindy. I think it's about a 1 in 10 for an anchor. :-)

That's a LIE!

Ahem. I meant to say, you're totally right about it being random, because I didn't get a single anchor clue while trying to solve my last puzzle box, and I had 30-odd clues. I kept thinking the next one would be it. I finally gave up and tried out a bunch of combinations till I could narrow it down to a few sets. I think I didn't even need the last clue in the end. :P I'd bump it up to 1 in 15 or 20, but on the bright side, they're not all that important either. :D (Okay, THAT's a LIE.)

Now if you want to talk about those NOT clues...

And sometimes you need as many as three anchor clues to solve the puzzle box. If you are not Bela. :)

And what if you have a few anchor clues and the rest is "somewhere to the left of ..."

Nemesis Thwarted!
Emer has finally tracked down one of the most nefarious criminals in the known world, after an agonizing hunt in which the heroic detective successfully solved diabolical puzzles and risked life and limb during the pursuit.

Congrats Emer! :D (Sindy called it. :P)

(Oh, and when you get X is to the left of Y, and Y is not in the sixth column...that is a stroke of luck.)

Emer just needs one more Nemesis hunt of that calibre and she'll hold all of the top 5 positions for fastest Nemesis hunter. Speedy speedy speed.
